How Many Caldecott Winners Have You Read?

 

 

 

 

I always feel as if it should be doable and pleasant to read all of the Caldecott and Newbery Award Winners because they're short and fun.   I think I boldy put reading all of the Caldecott's on my job here's-what-I should-do-to-improve-myself Individual Development Plan for the year.  Never made it through.  Never got mentioned on my review.  Needer.  The awards are given out each January so this list is hovering in my mind once more.

 

 

 

Here are the past rewards and highlighted are the ones I have read so far in my long time efforts.  I think I'm actually making progress!
